Music Volunteer Programs

Hans Christian Andersen famously said, “Where words fail, music speaks.” Music serves as the perfect lingua franca for international volunteers. For instance, you might struggle with Spanish while the locals may know hardly any English, yet you can both communicate through AC/DIce! Volunteering abroad in music programs offers the ultimate opportunity for cultural exchange. You'll share the gift of music with underprivileged communities and have the chance to discover music in an entirely new cultural context.

Elephant Sanctuary Chitwan, Nepal

March 20, 2025by: Carla Maria Rodrigues - IrelandProgram: World’s #1 Volunteer Programs. 40+ Countries from $20/day!

After going on a trek in the Himalayas in January of 2024, I fell in love with the country and the people and wanted to return there to do some volunteer work. I found IVHQ on the internet and with the variety of programs they offer around the world I was able to return to Nepal and booked a trip to the Elephant Sanctuary in Chitwan. It was a magical experience. You learn such a lot about these wonderful animals and the hosts at the sanctuary were so gracious. It was a very rewarding experience.
